During my first playthrough, it felt like I missed out on about 70% of the visuals because I was so engrossed in the text. I'm more accustomed to straightforward books without all the rich visual content...

Maviarablooks good, I'll evaluate it later
Should I be looking forward to a one sentence long 5-star review followed by years of inactivity?
There is one narrative now - Summers Gone Season 1 - it is what Ocean published on Steam/is releasing on Patreon/SS.
There are multiple perspectives.
Agree with some of those perspectives and not others - that is all good -- Each of us gets to have A perspective and discuss it here on this forum.
Like/dislike the rework done for Steam - that is fine.
Like/dislike the music - that is fine.
Like/dislike the changes from the old, darker version of the MC from 3 years ago - that is fine.
For those who keep pointing out all the things they don't like about Summers Gone - that is fine.
For those who keep pointing out all the things they like about Summers Gone - that is fine.
Agreement/disagreement with the positions of others makes no one daft.
It does mean that there are differences of opinion - that is fine.
There is no F95 Crusader's Award for forcing others to a particular point of view - there is only discussion.
If someone is truly bothered by another's negative opinion of Summers Gone - put them on ignore and move on.
If someone is truly bothered by another's positive opinion of Summers Gone - put them on ignore and move on.
If someone Truly hates what Summers Gone has become - why stay?
Time has value and I know I have left threads/stopped supporting devs when, IMO, the dev/AVN/thread went off the rails and stayed there.
For those who want to keep focusing on what Summers Gone used to be - that is fine.
I'm enjoying Summers Gone Season 1 - what is - and looking forward to Season 2 - what will be - continuing with Ocean's dev log tomorrow.
Cheers!!

Pffff, i just finished the season 1... Why most of the character´s lifes are so sad? It really affects me, i started playing it excited and happy but now a part of me is empty (and not only because now we have to wait god knows how much for a new chapter).
I´m not going to lie, i liked it so much, i even left aside Fallout 4 for two days for SG, but is true that i feel that the game without the censorship would be much better, specially in Nami path. Anyway i think Ocean has done a very good job.
I have taken screenshots of some scenes that for reason caught my attention and i have written my thoughts:
About Sasha i don´t know what to think about her, i want to like her but i find her more difficult than Bella, she is like a rock... I know she has a big trauma and her helping Nika in the book club was nice but i need to know her more for have interest in her.
And Bella´s sister!?!? I thought she was dead or something! I suppose she is in a vegetable state
Now i have some serious doubts about Katie and William being mentioned in the game, i suppose they are the same as in WiaB, but older? It just confuse me.
I don´t know why Nika hasn´t told Bella already that Vanessa is really smart and she could have played her, she is very dangerous
Last but no least important i want Maja proof her fetish on Nika I want all spicys fetishes in the game. I even want Zara to punish Nika making him eat her feet if he plays her like a fool again

What's the point of lying if everyone knows that 5 scenes were cut and only 1 scene by the lake was restored?
A bit OT so:
If you have not tried Chasing Sunsets, I recommend it - Jaye is Quite an LI.
While Bella is my favorite LI in SG, Zara climbed the charts as an LI and is now only behind Bella.
Her facial expressions once she and the MC get past the BB game/locker room retaliation are worth paying extra attention to.
There is also the simple joy she expresses at having someone she can train with or go shoot hoops with, and she genuinely enjoys competing with the MC in BB - remember 'No Blood, No Foul'.
Cheers!!

Nice overall summary of how you found it. I also found it far more emotive than previous versions, mainly because the renders weren't jumping between 4 years worth of quality in half a scene, so I paid more attention to the flow of the characters than getting distracted by visuals. In pariticular I found Maja, Nia and Nami hit me with their characters far more than previously.Pffff, i just finished the season 1... Why most of the character´s lifes are so sad?

About Willi and Katie (and Zoey, Stefan, Leia Emilio and Elena so far), we can see from the ones with screen time they have aged. It's two decades later, so we'll see them very differently. Stefan is the most obviously aged, Katie less so. How their story intersects with SG is a major part of what is going on, so I believe it'll be the current that Nika has to swim against, trying to fins balance while their games are going on around him. Katie has her hand in the basketball plot, for whatever reason it seems, and that suggests all the upper crust are having some sort of power play, probably continued from WiaB.
As far as connections, it's really worthwhile working out who of the mature people know each other, it makes a really interesting web.
And yes, Maja. There is no way Ocean should mention those things and not let them happen at some point!
The couple of things
I think so, yes, as the next update (S2E1) will be on patreon, and we are supposed to be able to import the saves. It shouldn't be hard to manually put the saves where they can be used in any case, as it's still renpy.

Indeed. I've seen more nudity in those Jehovah witness pamphlets.
Fans will get over it at some point (maybe): this is no longer an "AVN" by it's very definition.
We've been duped, plain and simple.

Nika is an asshole at the beginning and at the end of chapter five he is a ladykiller with erectile dysfunction. Basically ocean turned it into a walking contradiction.

Thousands of women for Nika to choose from, he's still with this erectile dysfunction thing, I think at the end of the game he'll end up with JeffreyThe guy on the roof is planning his hit.

Ive seen post here and there saying this is barley an AVN or shouldn't be considered one anymore. But I disagree with that even if Ocean got rid of all the boobs and ass. I feel like this still has enough Adult themes to it to be considered one, sure not as dark as it used to be but still feels like it still has enough darker themes to me. I think this because of the MC and the tone he sets for the game and just the way he thinks and talks about things in general.

At what exactly? In converting an AVN into a PG-13 dating sim? Otherwise highly subjective at this point (imo). To each there own though, but you caught me off guard with that comment tbh.
You and I have completely different definitions of "adult theme". There's more adult content on the Cartoon Network.
(I'm fucking with ya, everyone's opinion is fine by me, As stated to each their own.)

I've never been a big fan of Bella, but the start of Ch5 on her route is amazing. Especially if you continue playing from the previous chapter and have just watched its ending animation.
We need someone to post either the patreon verison or updated steam version with the two extra nami scenes and some bug fixes till I play.
I also need that patch to come out.
So hopefully those two things don't take too long, because I am excited to play this again.

Fair enough probably cause I don't play these games for the tits and ass ( it's the least important thing to me). So I see other themes that are dark or the game sets a dark tone for the game as enough to count.You and I have completely different definitions of "adult theme".

That's fair, but considering this site was founded in regards to a community of adult game and comic enthusiasts... most do play for T&A.

Yeah chapter 5 is really good for Bella tho she did win me over after saving the MC from the prank in the girls locker room. Yeah the animation ending for the previous chapter is my favorite in this game it's the reason why I saw Bella in a new light and consider her a mile above most LI out there to me personally. To me it just made her feel like such a romantic LI even if her story isnt one compared to someone like Jaye. Plus it flows so well into the next honestly Oceans cinematics are one of the best things about this game.
